Count words, characters, sentences, and paragraphs. Estimate reading and speaking time.
Words are counted by splitting text on whitespace boundaries. Hyphenated words like "well-known" count as one word. Numbers and special characters surrounded by spaces count as words.
Reading time is based on an average reading speed of 238 words per minute (the average adult speed). Speaking time uses 150 words per minute, which is typical for presentations.
